They had tons of fantasy novels, kids fantasy novels that I would have actually read and the books didn't feel like the thinly disguised indoctrination that I remember religious kids books having when I was a kid.

The church I grew up in thought reading Magic Kingdom for sale-Sold! was an invitation to Satan worship.
I'm an agnostic. That is, I neither believe nor deny an existence beyond the material world. Perhaps there is something, perhaps not. As long as the books I read don't outright preach or try to indoctrinate me, I'm fine.

An interesting bit about fantasy-loving Mormons, yes.
